    Going from 115 degrees to -65

    Ok, good to hear. Maybe i will just change the fluid in it (i dont know if it was ever done by the previous owner). I dont know what i am going to get. I think it depends on my financial situation when i finally decide to come back to the states for good. I have really been looking at one of...

    ATF as additive in 6.0??

    ATF is a great cleaner, but doesnt it have friction adders in it (for transmissions)? That is the only reason i dont use it. Although i guess the occationally use wouldnt hurt anything, i would just be worried about long term effects. Off Topic, is that your truck in your Avatar?

    Cat diesel in a pickup?

    The PDF for the C7 has size info: http://ohe.cat.com/cda/files/378797/7/LEHT3462-05.pdf How does that compare to the new Diesel in the F Series Trucks? Going by the Euro Spec ISB the Cat C7 is actually SMALLER, i wonder why nobody has used the CAT engines yet? Cost? Weight? :confused:

    Mustang Forum

    I think it depends what year mustang you are looking at. I hang around the modular stuff so SVTPerformance.com does it for me but i have heard that a lot of GREAT info comes from Ford Mustang-Mustang Cobra-Shelby Cobra-Ford Performance Vehicles-Modular Fords.

    Head Gasket Replacement

    And FWIW i have not seen an EGR go bad yet, usualy they just need to be removed and cleaned. 1 electrical connector, 2 10mm bolts and a can of bake clean and you are good.

    Arrrrggggg..........

    Somebody showed me that a while ago, it's a GREAT tip!! Get yoruself like a small center punch and hammer it up in the center of it. Just pull the punch out and watch it drain. It helps if you start to remove the filter, when the seal separates from the base it allows air in so more oil can...

    I hope Ford reads this.....

    That actually sounds like a great idea. I am pretty sure they do crash testing on all vehicles and dont see how the tilt hood would affect (effect?) anything. Or maybe you should have bought an F650 :D
